Synopsis
Excerpt from Scepticisms: Notes on Contemporary Poetry
Untermeyer, John Gould Fletcher, Maxwell BO denheim, Miss Harriet Monroe, -miss Amy Lowell, and myself, - among Others, - to write, first and last, a good deal of criticism Of poetry. We have all pretended pretty much, of course, in these cases, to write judicially. Our utterances are apt to sound authoritative and final. But do not be deceived! We are no surer of ourselves at bot tom than anybody else is. We are, in fact, half the time, frightened to death.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the contemporary poetic era, which the author sees as one of uncertainty, confusion, and conflict. It delves into the motivations of various poetic groups and individual poets, such as the Imagists and Ezra Pound, exploring their artistic theories and the ways in which they promote these theories and criticize their rivals. The author maintains that this competitive spirit is necessary for artistic growth but also fraught with dangers. Ultimately, this book highlights the challenges and aspirations of poets seeking distinction, uniqueness, and, perhaps, even greatness in an era marked by artistic upheaval and experimentation.
